Chapter one:
Toriel and Frisk are over at the skeletons house.
Frisk had decided to stay with monster kind and lives in the castle with Asgore and Toriel.
Toriel came back hearing about Asgore taking Frisk in and though the two aren't together Asgores working on it.
"It was really nice of you to let us come over." Toriel tells the two as she and Frisk are sitting on the couch with the brothers choosing to sit on the floor.
"Well why not." Sans shrugs slightly in a casual response. "You two are friends after all."
"Quite so!" Papyrus confirms with a nod and a bright expression. "And any friend of ours is welcome to come over to hang with us!"
"Oh you two are too kind." Toriel smiles at this. "Though Sans are you sure you're okay? You look tired. More than usual." She questions in worry for her friend as she looks to the shorter skeleton.
"It's okay." Sans tries to assure her. "I just sometimes have trouble sleeping is all." He shifts slightly in his spot and slightly glances away. He seems like he doesn't really want to talk about it as he tries to end the conversation about it. "It's nothing."
"Sans." Papyrus says the others name then when there isn't really a response he reaches over to the other. He gently grabs Sans's chin area turning him to look to him. He blinks and when his eyes open they are both glowing a beautiful orange with a slightly transparent wavy tail coming from the edges facing away from his face. He has a black circle that seems to be like his pupils and he looks right into Sans's eyes. "It's okay. It happens."
"Yeah." Sans agrees and as his right eye becomes all back his other eye glows. His left eye glows a beautiful blue colour with a larger version of his normal white oval eyes with a black oval in the middle. He also has the same kind of tail coming from wheee his eye is glowing but only out of the one eye. "It does." He has become a lot more calmer now.
"That's so sweet." Toriel softly speaks to herself and she figures that it must have been a nightmare or something. She's had her share of experiences of guys not wanting to admit to anyone but select few that they had a nightmare. She figures that must be it and Sans just doesn't want to admit it.
The two turn back to the two on the couch letting their eyes return to normal.
"Anyways. How about we play a game of some kind?" Papyrus offers an idea. "Me and Sans have some games Sans found at the junkyard one time with Alphys."
"That sounds like a great idea." Toriel nods in agreement and her smile widens a little. "You're putting that skull of yours to good use."
"Oh my god!" Papyrus almost shouts while Frisk giggles and Sans laughs.
"Heh. Nice one Torie. You rattled my bones with that one." Sans compliments and Papyrus groans only to quickly get to his feet.
"I shall go get the games and get away from those awful puns!" Papyrus heads off elsewhere as Toriel and Sans softly chuckle at him.
"Hey Torie." Sans speaks in which the female goat monster turns to her friend. "I think Papyrus had a good eye-dea with the game. Lets just hope his eye socket will be okay from his eye-deas flowing out."
"Oh hahahahaha." Toriel laughs bringing a hand up to be by her mouth and she also closes her eyes as she laughs. "Nice one Sans." She opens her eyes lowering her hand as she looks at her friend.
"There's a skele-ton more where that came from." Sans responds a sly look on his face.
"Well good to know that it'll be humerus tonight." Toriel responds back and even Frisk gets a chuckle out of it.
"Eye see what you did there." Sans slightly gestures towards Toriel for a moment before lowering his hand to his lap.
"Oh my god are you two still at it?" Papyrus questions as he approaches carrying a few game boxes most of them in pretty okay condition. Him speaking had gained the other threes attention as they had turned to look to him. "Do you ever stop?"
"Aw come on bro. It's not that bad." Sans tries to slightly shrug it off while Papyrus puts the games between everyone.
"Those puns are horrible!" Papyrus protests turning to his brother as he straightens from his bent over position. He places his gloved fists onto his hips and stands tall giving the three an announcement. "Either way I the great Papyrus will become the champion in our game! You shall see! Nyeh heh heh heh!"
"I'm sure you can win at them bro." Sans responds rather affectionately and Papyrus stands just a little taller.
"Nyeh heh heh heh! Of course I will! Just you wait and see."
Toriel stared for a few moments at her skeleton friends but she turns away and they all try to pick what to play first.
They end up playing a board game called Life.
Papyrus has just landed on the get married spot with Sans in position not too far behind him.
"Now you'll have a father to be with your mother." Frisk tells Papyrus who slightly glances away to his car.
"Now now. It can be two mothers or two fathers if that's how he wants it to be." Toriel informs Frisk and she turns handing Papyrus the piece which his takes. She notices his slightly shaky hand as he slightly slowly places it onto the spot it goes onto. "There we go." She nods flashing a quick smile while Papyrus just nods.
Sans turn was up next and he ended up on the same place as Papyrus. He is handed the piece by Toriel and he hesitates a moment before reaching out taking it. He does it again just before adding it to his car.
Toriels eyes flicker to Frisk for a moment before turning back to the game as it is her turn.
"Hey Sans." Papyrus speaks up and Toriel glances to them as they look at one another. "What if the two pieces were us? Then we're together forever."
"Heh." Sans gives a smile to that. "Yup. It could be. We are so close we know each other down to the bone."
"Oh my god Sans!" Papyrus glares almost playfully at his brother who laughs.
Toriel chuckles lightly before continuing with her turn while the brothers look a little more perked up.
They played the game for a good bit and Frisk ended up being the winner.
"Well that was fun." Toriel admits as they had jut cleaned the game up.
"It was okay." Sans shrugs obviously not caring that he had come in last.
"I surrendered my victory to my friend Frisk!" Papyrus adds as he had just barely come in second being rather close to Frisk in winning.
"We have time for one more game." Toriel tells them after checking the time on her cell phone. "What game shall we play?"
"How about a card game?" Frisk suggests pulling out a deck of cards.
"Sure. That sounds good." Papyrus agrees.
"Okay. Lets get started."
They all have settled on the floor in a circle as they begin playing a game with the cards.
Sans decided to help out Papyrus so they can team up. He allowed Papyrus to wrap an arm around him almost protectively.
They stay there cuddling as Sans lays against Papyrus's torso giving some quietly spoken tips.
Sans does end up falling asleep like that.
Papyrus is about to ask Sans something when he notices. "You lazy bones." He lightly shakes his head and puts his cards face down pulling Sans onto his lap. He holds him that way letting the other cuddle while he rejoins the game.
